4. Back Stage

As they ended the concert with In The End I began to get nervous once again. I watched Andy bend over and high-five everyone's hand in the front row and some of the second.

When the song ended, I saw Andy look straight at me and smile before turning back to the crowd. "Thanks again for coming out guys! I love you! And always remember, stay you!" With that being said, Andy put the microphone in the stand.

Next thing I knew he was running towards backstage. Once he got there, he held his arms open wide. I smiled and walked directly into them. I let him wrap his arms around me as I laid my head on his chest. His hug was so warm and comforting. For some reason, I felt so protected in his arms. He pulled back and looked in my eyes, "Gosh you're so beautiful..."

I felt myself blush as he caressed my makeup covered face. "Thanks..." I managed to get out just louder than a whisper.

Andy laughed and smiled, "You're cute when you blush."

All I did was smile back. I didn't know what to say to him. Honestly, I was still in shock that he was here. Andrew Dennis Biersack was standing right in front of me. Calling me beautiful. Not anyone else. Me. Harley Isabelle Shay.

"What are you thinking about?" Andy asked with one eyebrow raised.

I sighed, "Just that... you're here. And you hugged me and you called me beautiful... It's a lot to take in."

He chuckled, "Yeah, well I did. And I called you beautiful because you are."

I smiled and before I could say thanks, Christian Came walking towards us with a white towel thrown over his shoulder.

"Let's go Andy. It's about time for Meet and Greets." He said patting Andy's shoulder and smiling down at me.

Andy sighed, "Alright."

Just as I was about to walk away and go find Micheal, he grabbed my hand and started pulling me along with him. "Andy!! What are you doing?" I said beginning to laugh.

"You didn't think I was gonna let you get away that easily did you?" He said looking back at me and winking.

I couldn't help but laugh at his expression. Finally we reached a door and once again he looked back at me and smiled as he opened it.
